Annalee Grace Sullivan was born on April 7, 2003 and lived the life of a playful, spiritually sensitive, musical child until she was 3 1/2 years old. On January 21, 2007 she suffered an hypoxic brain injury from a seizure caused by undiagnosed Addison's Disease.
In spite--or because--of her physical and cognitive limitations, Annie was a blessing to all who knew her. She died on March 25, 2011, and today stands in the presence of Jesus--completely whole and without disability.

Election Eve

I have one comment about the election tomorrow: I'd like Tina Fey to have steady work for the next four years.

But enough politics. Check out the new pictures of Annie that I took on Halloween. She was a princess, and she dressed up like one too. She didn't get any candy that night--Bill and I pretty much ate whatever the neighbor kids didn't take--but she did catch the cold that is going around our house. This morning I thought she sounded like she was talking through her nose, and when she sneezed I had a visual confirmation of the sinus blockage. Now we're back on stress doses of hydrocortisone.

She's also been having a few little seizures that I wasn't going to say anything about, because if I don't talk about them, then they really didn't happen you know. But they've been brewing for a couple of weeks, and Annie's doc recommended going up on a couple of her seizure meds, so they're back undercover for now. That's the nature of seizures I guess--always right under the surface. Stealth seizures.

Anyway, go vote if you haven't already. And may God continue to bless America through leadership that honors Him.
